As Sigrid is still missing the Oslo police now regards the case as a crime case, after search started early last Sunday
The police says she has "
fair, brown hair" while photos show her hair is dark brown.
One of the first photos showed a blond looking Sigrid.
Why is her hair in other pictures dark and not fair? Is she truly blond? She has blue eyes. Did her parents out of instinct tell the police that their daughter has fair hair, and then later the police added "brown"? Could it be dyed? Did she choose to dye it? Why?
